Swap your traditional syrup with Agave! Swap white sugar in your coffee for Agave! Swap white sugar when you bake with Agave! WHY?
One of the most health-promoting properties of Agave nectar is its favorable glycemic profile. Its sweetness comes primarily from a complex form of fructose called inulin. Fructose is the sugar that occurs naturally in fruits and vegetables. The carbohydrate in agave has a low glycemic index, which provides sweetness without the "sugar rush" and unhealthful blood sugar spike caused by many other sugars.
Other benefits include:
-Calcium absorption for bone density and overall health
-Calories counts show that cup for cup, agave comes in MUCH LOWER than conventional sugar (savings around 300 calories per cup)
-Immunity boost and increased energy levels due to cutting down on processed food and replacing with nutritional value
